Snacking and Losing Weight

Written on October 6, 2009 – 8:37 am | by Glass Pearl |

During the few sunny days we’ve had this spring, I wore t-shirts and immediately noticed that I’d picked up some weight.

Even though I started eating more healthily at the start of September.

I even made my easy vegetable soup recipe for those times when I got too lazy to make a proper meal for lunch or supper.

Many eating plans and diets suggest snacking on fruit, nuts, certain health bars, yoghurt etc. inbetween meals.

What are those people trying to help us lose weight or help put more on?

What ever happened to eating 3 meals per day?

Since I’ve started snacking between meals, I’ve noticed that I’m actually putting more weight on.

Everything revolves around planning and eating meals.

It used to be so easy in the days when people were actually a lot less heavy than we are now. 

We ate at breakfast, lunch and supper.  And we had proper meals at each meal time.

No obsessions with food and watching the clock on the best time to start eating.

So I’m cutting out on snacking and only eating my three meals a day without obsessing over healthy snacks.

I try to get my vegetables and fruit and nuts in during meal times and for the rest and I eat sweet treats on occassion.

No more obsessing about healthy food for me.
